went town yesterday with my aunt jane, uncle kelvin and my cousins yanying and yangzhi to choose their new piano and for some last minute christmas shopping. went takashimaya children's section on the third level and it was fully packed with people obviously doing their last minute christmas shopping too. yangzhi wanted to get a new lego set as his christmas present but takashimaya doesn't really sell much of lego products. so we went to a lego shop at paragon where yanying was having her sociolio correction therapy. after much deliberation we had initially decided to get this:











which is really nice! but it cost a whopping 259 bucks which my uncle thought wasn't too worth the price. so eventually we went to toys "r" us instead and got a game cd-rom instead.

was caught in a massive jam on our way to plaza singapura's yamaha. we spent the time trying to call into carrie chong's radio show with our handphones while waiting in the car but to no avail.

went to yamaha and tried out this upright standing grand piano (model: U5) which they were planning to invest in. after which we tried another baby grand piano which cost $13,900, a thousand bucks less than the upright grand piano. consulted our piano teacher and she told us that it is still more worthy to get a upright grand piano. the salesperson played a couple of pieces on that piano for us to hear and indeed it has got a very clear and rich tone texture. probably one of the best upright pianos in the market!















while we were testing out the piano yanying told my aunt she wanted to learn the rock guitar and that was when something hilarious happened.

background information: there was a period when yanying and me like to imitate the bimbotic, irritating and lame antics shown in "Mean Girls" having watched it at least thrice. most importantly, there is a very prominent character call "Regina George" in the movie, who was, in my opnion, the scripted version of paris hilton lol.















here is a short clip form the film to illustrate the lameness of this highly rated chick flick:

Mean Girls (Part 2)


okay as i was saying yanying told my aunt that she wanted to learn rock guitar next year and she replied "what rock guitar. next year PSLE already...once in a life time, don't still whole day VAGINA george here VAGINA george there." in the yamaha piano showroom. obviously we burst out laughing. LOL. i cannot believe anyone would want to name themselves "vagina". the thought of my name being "penis ng" send chills down my spine.

had a rather late dinner at manhattan fish market. ordered lobster seafood platter, seafood platter, soups, grilled fish and drinks. got rather sick of all the fried food after a while and we couldn't really finish all the food.

went home after touring around town to look at the christmas lightnings in the car despite the heavy traffic there. rather impressive, gives one an imperial glittery gold feel. don't know why, the sight just reminded me of the new epic "the curse of the golden flower".

just heard that my gp teacher miss jaqueline yeo is leaving the school next year two days ago. to think that i am really looking forward to her gp lessons next year! would definitely miss her funny antics and slacky gp lessons! nevertheless guess it is time for her to "move on" to ACSI and wish her a very successful teaching career there.

i shall resolve to do more homework today than the total amount of work i have done for the holidays so far, which is not a very difficult task to fulfill.

shall try to call carrie chong tonight to wish everyone a very merry christmas!
